Question
Answer
virus consists of …   show
🗑
virion   show
🗑
why are viruses not classified as living organisms?   show
🗑
show virus adsorbing to specific chemical receptor site on the host  
🗑
lytic cell cycle   show
🗑
lysogenic viral cell cycle   show
🗑
reverse transcriptase   show
🗑
show when viral DNA remains incorporated in the host DNA and remains or dormant/latent  
🗑
ways to classify viruses   show
🗑
show unenveloped ones are responsible for the common cold, indicates that the proteins can be directly translated from the RNA  
🗑
show include retroviruses that include the HIV that carries the enzyme reverse transcriptase  
🗑
minus strand RNA viruses   show
🗑
show with antibodies that bind to viral protein (spike proteins on envelope) and with cytotoxic T cells  
🗑
viriods   show
🗑
prions   show
🗑
show either an injection of antibodies or an injection of a nonpathogenic virus with the same capsid or envelope so host immune system can create its own antibodies  
🗑
show viruses can continue to thrive in another animal thus maintaining the ability to reinfect the human population  
🗑
prokaryotes   show
🗑
archea   show
🗑
show 1 of 2 domains of prokaryotes  
🗑
phototrophs   show
🗑
show organisms that acquire energy from oxidation of organic or inorganic matter  
🗑
show organisms that are capable as using CO2 as their sole source of carbon - energy expensive process  
🗑
show use preformed organized molecules as their source of carbon  
🗑
prokaryotic DNA   show
🗑
prokaryotic ribosome   show
🗑
show granules of organic or inorganic matter; sometimes bound to membrane  
🗑
flagellum   show
🗑
show invagination of plasma membrane, unknown function, and may or maynot be present in a prokaryote  
🗑
show can attach bacteria to solid surface  
🗑
show phosphate group, two fatty acid chains, and a glycerol backbone  
🗑
liposome   show
🗑
integral membrane protein   show
🗑
peripheral membrane protein   show
🗑
show model describing the plasma membrane - forces holding membrane together are intermolecular so membrane is fluid - so its parts can move laterally but not separate  
🗑
show cholestroal  
🗑
show hopanoids - reduce fluidity of the membrane  
🗑
what to consider with permeability of membrane?   show
🗑
most diffusion of polar or charged molecules across a natural membrane taes place through...   show
🗑
passive diffusion   show
🗑
transport/carrier proteins   show
🗑
show mechanism used by transport proteins to help specific molecules across membrane down electro-chemical gradient; often relied on for glucose supply in human cells, and makes membrane selectively permeable  
🗑
active transport   show
🗑
secondary active transport   show
🗑
big and polar molecules will be transported across a membrane with...   show
🗑
show protoplast then bacterial envelope then cell wall  
🗑
functions of bacterial cell wall   show
🗑
show aqueous soln of their cytosol contains more particles than the aqueous soln surrounding tissue  
🗑
cell is isotonic to their soln meaning ..   show
🗑
cell is hyptonic to their soln meaning ..   show
🗑
show peptidoglycan  
🗑
peptidoglycan   show
🗑
show staining technique use dto prepare bacteria for viewing under the light microscope  
🗑
gram positive bacteria   show
🗑
gram negative bacteria   show
🗑
show can protect bacterium from phagocytosis, dessication, some viruses, and some componanets of host immune systems  
🗑
slime layers   show
🗑
show conjugation, transformation, and transduction  
🗑
conjugation   show
🗑
transformation   show
🗑
show uses the capsid of bacteriophage tin inject bacterial DNA into cell instead of virulent viral DNA (vector)  
🗑
show conjugative plasmid creates the sex pilus to connect two bacteria and allow passage of DNA - strand is replicated as it is separated, fed into pilus into other cell  
🗑
F plasmid   show
🗑
R plasmid   show
🗑
show formed by some gram positive bacteria that can lie dormant for hundreds of years; resistent to heat, UV radiation, chemical disinfectants, and desiccation; triggered by lack of nutrient  
🗑
fungi   show
🗑
chiting   show
🗑
what stage dominates in fungi? (diploid or haploid)   show
🗑
show haploid which give rise to new mycelia in asexual repoduction; borne by air currrents, water, or animals to locations suitable for new mycelial growth  
🗑
asexual reproduction of fungi often occurs by...   show
🗑
show hyphae from two mycelia (+ & -) grow toward each other to form conjugation bridge to form complete septum - becomes gamete producing cell - separates from parent - activated by environment to undergo meiosis and produce haploid cells  
🗑
show consist of tangled mass mycelium of multiply branched thread like hyphae  
🗑
